Numerical and experimental investigation of the interface properties and failure strength of CFRP T-Stiffeners subjected to pull-off load

This paper focuses on interface properties between the composite laminae, and the failure strength of carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) T-stiffeners in a pull-off test. Interfacial fracture toughness was studied and optimized based on the theoretical method and experimental observations in the...
